  • Time-division multiplexing processing circuitry
    Patent number: 8634440
    Abstract: An integrated circuit including multiple instances of identical processing circuitry may be modelled within a field programmable gate array integrated circuit by second processing circuitry connected via a multiplexer to first processing circuitry and operating at a multiple of the clock frequency of the first processing circuitry. Demultiplexing circuitry is used to reform the multiple outputs of the respective separate instances to be fed back to the first processing circuitry.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 23, 2010
    Date of Patent: January 21, 2014
    Assignee: ARM Limited
    Inventors: Spencer J Saunders, Liam Dillon, Rafal J Janta
  • Time-division multiplexing processing circuitry
    Publication number: 20120044957
    Abstract: An integrated circuit 2 including multiple instances 6, 8, 10, 12 of identical processing circuitry may be modelled within a field programmable gate array integrated circuit 22 by second processing circuitry 28 connected via a multiplexer 26 to first processing circuitry 24 and operating at a multiple of the clock frequency of the first processing circuitry. Demultiplexing circuitry 32 is used to reform the multiple outputs of the respective separate instances to be fed back to the first processing circuitry 24.
